Is there really a God? Does He actually care? 

How am I supposed to help my teenager that is struggling with a mental illness? 

Can I ever be forgiven for what I've done? 

Will I ever have a stable job? 

Will I see my mom again? 

Is there anything special about me? 

How can I strengthen my relationship with my spouse? Do they still love me? 

Why can't I find peace? 

Will I ever know the truth? 

Am I always going to struggle with this? Will this pain ever end?

What am I meant to accomplish in this life? 

How can Jesus Christ help me? 

Maybe you have asked one of these questions in your life. Maybe you have one of these questions right now. Or maybe you have a different question you wish you could have an answer to. 

The truth is, we all have deep questions and we wish they could be answered. Sometimes we voice these questions, sometimes we keep then tucked away or buried deep inside. But until they are answered, they will remain in our minds and hearts. 

Let me suggest one simple way to get an answer to your questions. 

Pray. Kneel down, humble yourself before God and ask Him. Pour out all those locked up questions and concerns and worries and hurts. Share with Him the deepest parts of your soul. 

Heres the next step: Read the Book of Mormon. Whether you've never read a single word of this book or have read it through nearly a million times - after you pray, read. And pause as you read. Look for the answer. 

I cannot promise that your answer will come in the first verse you read. But I can promise that it is in that book. The very answer you wish you had, is in the book of mormon. And the Holy Ghost, the spirit, will help you recognize it. 

I know that the Book of Mormon is the word of God, and that God uses it to answer our most sincere questions. He will answer that question that is most important and dear to you. I know that He loves you. I know that because He loves you, He has provided the Book of Mormon as a way to receive revelation and inspiration straight from heaven. 

I love you all, thank you for your support and your prayers! We are seeing miracles and I know we will see more this upcoming week! 

Sincerely, 

Sister Bush 

Ps funny story: we forgot about daylight savings and so we were late to church. What a great way to start that day --I pulled into the parking lot and was thinking "why are there so many cars?" 

And that's when the realization hit haha. 

Good times good times. 

Anyways have a great week everyone!
